SANITARY TOILET-SEAT PAD.

Application filed September 28, 1927. Serial No. 222,486.

This invention relates to an improved sanitary, pad for toilet seats,and the object is to produce a device oit this character having a basemember adapted to be secured to the toilet seat, and having thereon aplurality of coverings detachably secured thereto, which will aiiord toeach individual user a sanitary cover for the seat.

To attain these advantages, I provide a base member formed from heavycardboard, and conforming in general 'with the contour ot the toiletseat, and having thereon a pad of sanitary sheets detachably secured tothe base member, and tormed so that they may be readily detached Yfromone another. I 'fui`- ther provide the base member with a guinmedsurface, whereby it is quickly applied for use, and will be rigidlyretained in relation to the toilet seat, and an additional securingmeans, I provide interlockingl and slotted flaps which, having thegummed surface, will also adhere to the toilet seat.

In the drawings, I show a preferred embodiment of this invention, but itis to be understood thatminor changes and modiiications may be madewithout departing from the spirit of the invention.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of the pad embodying myinvention, the flaps oi: the base member being shown in dotted lines inthe folded and interloclred position. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the basemember showing the interlocking` iiaps in the extended position before'folding them. Fig. il is a sectional view of the pad applied to a seatcover. Fig. l is a side or edge view of the pad, with the flaps shown atan angle with the base.

Referring to the drawings, the device consists of a pad 11, of suitablepaper, each having a tab 12, adapted to be grasped by the user when thesheet is to be detached 'trom the pad. The tabs are arranged so that theuppermost one will always projectover those beneath, thereby renderingdetachment of the uppermost sheet to be readily accomplished. T he padis attached to the base member 13, which made from eXtra heavycardboard, having gummed surfaces, by which it Will readily adhere tothe toilet seat 111-,

the gumined surfaces preventing` displacementrelative to the toiletseat. The base member 13, has slotted outer tlaps 15 and in ner flaps16, arranged so that, when folded beneath the toilet seat, they willinterlock with one another, each outer flap being opposed to acorresponding inner flap.

In attaching the device to a toilet seat, the -flaps are passed underthe same, and the slotted flap extremities are placed in interlockedposition. The gummed surfaces oi the base and flaps will adhere to theseat.

In use, each individual sheet may be des tached as desired. The sheetsmay be made of any suitable material, but are iufeferably of a thin andwater-proof paper fabric. The tabs 12 are so formed as to preventtearingl olf the sheet when it is detached trom the pad. The pad 11ismade up in the manner ot any ordinary pad. In replacing the pad, thebase member is thoroughly moistened, and is then readily removed fromthe toilet seat. A new pad may then be placed in position and secured tothe seat. The base member has been described as constructed from heavycardboard, but it is to be understood that gunnned cloth may be used asa substitute therefor and as the equivalent thereof.

I claim:

1. A. sanitary toilet seat cover pad, eoinprising a base member havinggun'imed surfaces to adhere to a toilet seat, slotted securing flapsadapted to pass under the scat, interlockin extremities on the opposedl'laps, and a pad of detachalille sheets secured to the base member.

2. A sanitary toilet seat pad, comprising a base member, gummed surfaceson the base member adapted to adhere to a toilet seat, flaps integralwith the base member and adapted to pass under the toilet seat, saidflaps being arranged in opposed relation one,

to another on the base member, interlocking extremities on the flaps,and a pad oli' detachable sheets mounted on the base member.

In testimony whereof I hereunto ailix my signature.
